Indefinite Lines by ArwaMachine
Fandoms: Sherlock (TV), Sherlock Holmes & Related Fandoms

Summary
When two lines, inclined towards each other, are extended indefinitely, it is inevitable that they meet. Upon meeting, the lines become something new. Together. Perhaps it’s been like that from the beginning for Sherlock and John—their lives weaving together, inclined towards one another, moving closer and closer to something greater than themselves.
But that’s all a bit romantic, isn’t it?
On another topic, Sherlock and John find themselves faced with a series of seemingly disparate cases that are growing increasingly connected, increasingly personal. They must unravel the mystery laid before them by a particularly ruthless set of criminals before the danger is upon them, or else run the risk of being cleaved apart forever, lines scattered to the wind.

Summary
They say that people who settle in such isolated, wild places cradled and battered by the sea are exceptionally at peace with themselves or running away from something. Sherlock certainly knows which one applies to him, but what about his reclusive neighbour John Watson?

Summary
And there it is, isn’t it? Something they’ve known for a long time, but haven’t named it. Have been too scared to name it. Something that speaks in their bones, in the space between them.
Crowley and Aziraphale are turned human. This is the aftermath.

Summary
Every morning, he lets out a rattled breath of relief because John doesn't know yet; he can still pretend everything hasn't changed.
Sometimes it's the smallest things, rather than criminal master plans or elaborate family secrets, which ultimately destroy what a man has fought to preserve.

Summary
I imagine mornings: John handing me a cup of tea, hair sticking out at odd angles. How he would bend down to kiss me, smiling fondly as he pulls away. The way his skin crinkles at the corner of his eyes, the way his skin looks in the morning light. The soft sigh as he sits in his chair with the morning paper, the way his toes curl in the carpet, the way he rolls his shoulders before sinking deeper into his seat.
I watch him, how he is when he is content, as it should be.
As he deserves. Happy. With me.

Summary
"I have a friend who says the government's trying to cover it all up. He says that in China people've already started changing, you know, mutating, developing new organs and stuff. They don't want people in a panic, he says. You think it could be true?"
There are no alphas and no omegas — not until maroon dust falls from the sky and changes the world. Sherlock and John treat their biological changes with a medicine of denial and avoidance, very nearly destroying themselves in the process.

Summary
What the hell does it matter if my words upset him, when he's so obviously out of control?
''I think you know what this is. I think you know that you have an eating disorder. And I think you are scared.''
Sherlock blinks at me, his throat still swallowing. He has a wild look in his eyes that I don't like, so I push back against my chair, stand up, and go towards him.

The Breaking Wheel by J_Baillier

Summary
His immune system is decimating his nervous system - a civil war raging inside of him. Is there a reaction he's supposed to be having to this news, now? Something normal: cry, scream, pound the wall? Shake his fist at the uncaring universe?
John can't stop this. An uncomfortable bed at some hospital ward isn't going to stop this.
They keep telling him that this will most likely pass, but no one is answering the most important question: how will he be able to endure the uncertainty and the long wait?

Summary
Two musical notes: Every parrot and every construction worker knows them. Shrill and salacious, so Sherlock will remember: You are on display. It’s supposed to be a compliment. Supposed to make him feel good, that they have laboured to remind him.
It makes him feel like a package of meat, set down into the cooler, raw and waiting to eaten.

His fingers tremble as he dials and he can’t force them steady. Familiar number, even though he hasn’t used it in two years. He isn’t even sure he should be calling it now, but she’d asked. She’d made him promise.
